Penn Spinfisher V Spinning Reels

A more advanced edition of the Spinfisher series reels. The Spinfisher V Series spinning reels are made with Penn's new Water Tight Design which protects the reel from saltwater making its way into the gearbox or drag system. The Spinfisher V Series reels have many improved features such as the rubber gasket that keeps superline from slipping. Another great feature is the line capacity rings, so you will always know how much line is left during a tough angling fight.

Best reel under $200

April 18, 2015

I can't find any flaws with the reel, I have dunked it and lost it underwater for a little while and it is still very smooth. The Penn SSV is the best reel for surf fishing under $200, maybe even more.

Spinfish live liner

Pros:

Love the free spool for live bait

Spinfisher V

March 5, 2014

I have three of these reels in the 6500LL and they are great for living lining for rockfish. The independent drag is a much better option I think then fishing with an open bail.

economical workhorse reel

April 18, 2013

cheaper even than the penn battle, this one is for anglers who has the "no-fuss" buying approach...maybe not as "glamorous" in the appearance, but it still gets the job done nicely, and with an even neater price tag, there isn't much to complain about!
